Answer:

7.85sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

s(t)=16t squared​, where t is time in seconds. The height of a certain tower is 986 feet.

s(t) = 16t²

so when s = 986feet

16t² = 986 feet

t² = 986 /  16

t² = 61.625

t = √61.625

t= 7.85 seconds

Answer: t = 7.85seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Height of tower = 986 Feets

Function s(t) = 16t^2

To find the time t 8 in Seconds taken for an object to fall to the ground from the top of the​ building

16t^2 = 986

t^2 = 986/16

t ^2 = 61.625

Take the square root of both sides

t = sqrt(61.625)

t = 7.85seconds

Bethany says, Using these exchange rates, £1 is worth 1.17 euros.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>

1 euro = 1.07 dollars

£1 = 1.25 dollars

Now ,

⇒ £1 = 1.25 dollars

⇒ £1 = 1.25dollars(\frac{1.07}{1.07})

⇒ £1 = (1.07dollars)(\frac{1.25}{1.07})

⇒ £1 = (1euro)(\frac{1.25}{1.07})

⇒ £1 = (1euro)(1.17)

⇒ £1 =1.17 euros

Therefore , Bethany says, Using these exchange rates, £1 is worth 1.17 euros.
